Salutations™!!
Have I told you how much I love my wife, Stephanie (The BCPF)? I’m sure I have, ad nauseum. That’s okay, I’m proud of her for so many things. I decided to dedicate love letters to her. Now, here’s the twist. This week is ALL about Goth love. Goth love isn’t always pretty songs, as you’ll see, and it may not be immediately clear that it’s a love song. But Goth is one of Stephanie’s love languages.

What are some of your favorite Goth love songs ?
Do you have ideas for show topics? I’d really love to hear your ideas because eventually (any day now), I’m going to run out of things to talk about out of my feeble brain.
Also, you don’t have to be “local” to listen. We are an internet-based radio station and are licensed to broadcast anywhere in the US, Canada, Mexico, and the UK. We broadcast out of the Omniverus Studios at Liberty Plaza.
Your next question may be: well, how do we listen? We have you covered on that. The Camel City Radio app is available on both the Apple Play and Google Play stores, so we are compatible with any iOS or Android device. Also, we now have our Alexa Skill. All you have to do is say, “Alexa, play Camel City” and Bob’s your uncle. You don’t even have to say “radio” (because she takes me to some weird Pandora channel). Just “Camel City.” And now, we are on the Audacy directory. Listen anywhere on the web or in an app.
You can comment here, send an email or call 336-462-8660 and leave a voicemail. We will play your VM on the air (unless you tell us not to).
Listen to The Rose Garden of Doom on Camel City Radio on Saturday mornings at 10a-until. Eugene has The Non-Conformist Cult Radio Show on Friday Nights, 8p-10p. And our Wednesday munchie fest, The Evening Chill from 7p until 11p!
Until next time, same blog channel at some blog time…
Scorp out!

“The air tastes just like you, it’s the smell of june. A sensory shock that jolts my spirits, I slowly swallow you. A spray of little droplets, a fragrance so refined. The spirit of nostalgia is passing me by. Opium and poison, jasmine and rose. Maze of ambrosia, all flavours glow. It’s sensual.” – “Jasmine and Rose” (Moerings)
